this seems to be a different file...did u upload the file that u gave us??

It is the same file didn't you check the MD5s they are the same, the VT link provided by SaAnVi is for an old scan 27 July 2010 (2010-07-27 22:24:12 (UTC)), so is a totally outdated set of results. Unfortunately the link provided by Coolmario88cp doesn't work.

Hi Coolmario88cp

shrink.exe is a potential security risk which can be modified maliciously by malware, that is why it should be removed. The final rating for this is threat...

Use NoScript, a limited user account and a virtual machine and be safe(r)!
